NOTE 12 – LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

The basic net loss per common share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the year. The diluted net loss per common share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net loss available to common stockholders by the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. The diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of common shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. Diluted net loss per common share is equal to basic net loss per share due to the Company’s net loss and any potentially issuable shares are anti-dilutive.

As discussed in Note 2 above, the Company received notice from DTCC on behalf of the brokerage firms that hold the shares of Company common stock held in “street name” that in connection with the foregoing rounding of shares the Company would need to issue 188,950 shares of common stock which are not included in the amounts above. If these shares had been issued as of November 19, 2024 when notice from DTCC was received, the amounts for basic and diluted net loss per common share for 2024 would be as follows:

Common shares consisting of shares potentially dilutive as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 are as follows:
